In this episode of Train Talk, we'll look at the different types of passenger trains you can see running today (aside from light rail and subways - that's for another episode. I'll discuss things such as distance each type of passenger typically travels, what kinds of travelers usually use the trains, and what types of cars you can expect to see on each train

These are some others that you didn't mention:
Streetcars: While technically not a train, they run on railroad tracks and do take people to places. They can fall under the commuter or tourist categories
Airport peoplemovers: These passenger trains take people from one terminal or concourse to another. They can fall under the commuter category
Theme park trains: They take people on tours and make few station stops along the way. They are usually in a theme park or railroad park. They can fall under the tourist category.
Rollercoasters: They also arent really a train, but they are similar. They would fall under the tourist category.
Also, there is the monorail at disney world. That would be a commuter/tourist train. They take people from one park to another, and do serve some hotels.

look Think don't think About Amtrack Northeast cordor because Amtrack has problems at Newark Penn station. a lot of people who take Amtrack on the Northeast cordor it's just crazy there too many complainments. just stick with NJ Transit there path trains are fast during Commute hours and afternoon hours sometimes you'll see one Local running different times in the afternoon by Norfolk southern usually by The Pascack valley line or Bergen county line or Main line. just don't take Amtrack because at the Northeast cordor take the other Amtrack that's an Intercity train.

Tourist train or heritage railroads are my favorite type of passenger trains in the modern era. When you ride a heritage railroad, you-ll go back in time when railroads was the only way to travel in America before airplanes become an easy way to travel begin in the late 1950s.

You forgot -Regional Trains. - Here in North Carolina we have the Amtrak #80-79 Carolinian. It travels over 600 miles, but only has a Baggage Car, a Business Car, a Cafe Car and four Coach Cars. It has one train going north and one train going south every day.

The Amtrak surfliner should count as a commuter train because it runs forwards and backwards just like commuter trains do. It also takes metrolink and coaster passengers too, during the non busy travel times of the year.

Why is there no scenic train from Bend to The Dalles? That would be AMAZING! Amtrak has run a heretage train to Bend from Portland before but it's every few years and the one this year was cancelled.

Hey CF2105 you forgot medium distance trains like the such as the Carolinian, The Palmetto, and the Pennsylvanian and they are not intercity trains because they operate once a day
